I was a happy Colibri user for the last couple of months. Colibri is a very nice alternative program launcher for Windows. Last week I uninstalled Colibri and switched completely to Launchy. Launchy is better, faster, and it is opensource. Since version 0.9.1 search results are also sorted by the frequency of use. Press ALT SPACE F ENTER to launch Firefox. Press ALT SPACE S ENTER to launch SQL Server Management Studio.
Launchy is the most efficient way to open files and programs on your computer. Nobody likes to hunt through the start menu to find an application, just to find that the application is hidden under some obscure folder named after a company you have never heard of! Instead, Launchy is a smart search program which tries to guess which program or file you are looking for and will launch it when you hit the enter key. It is only visible when you hit the alt+space key combination; otherwise it hides in the background. Once you have used it for a few days, it becomes an indispensable utility for your computer. And it’s free!
Firefox Extension of the week The Copy URL+ extension enables you to copy to the clipboard the current document's address along with additional information such as the document's title, the current selection or both. https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=129
During the last months the scope of my blog narrowed more and more to SQL Server and IT stuff in general. This gives me a good reason to switch it to English. I will use Babel Fish to translate between Dutch and English.
From English to Dutch...
Tijdens de laatste maanden in het algemeen versmalde het werkingsgebied van mijn blog meer en meer aan SQL Server en het materiaal van IT. Dit geeft me een goede reden om het aan het Engels te schakelen. Ik zal de Vissen van Babel om tussen het Nederlands en het Engels gebruiken te vertalen.
